Is this the right RCD Test Record?

An RCD test record covers push-button and trip time testing of residual current devices. This template keeps one clean register per client or site, aligned with AS/NZS 3760.

  • This is a Tradie Forms designed record, not a government form.
  • AS/NZS 3760 sets testing methods and intervals. Check the applicable trip-time limit for the RCD and test method.
Who has to complete the RCD Test Record?
Electricians and competent persons who test fixed, socket, and portable RCDs.
When is it required?
Whenever RCDs are tested in service. Workplaces need a record of periodic testing to show safety switches remain effective.
Where does the completed form go?
Give a copy to the client or site manager and keep one for your records. Tradie Forms does not lodge the record with any regulator.
Can I fill it on my phone?
Yes. Tradie Forms walks you through each section on your phone and downloads the official PDF layout when you are ready.
Will this PDF be accepted?
Tradie Forms downloads your answers in the official PDF layout where supported. Always preview and check the completed PDF before sending, lodging, or handing it over. Tradie Forms does not lodge or certify the form for you.

The testing is quick. The proof is the slow bit

Push-button and trip time tests take seconds. Keeping a record the safety officer will accept is where the time goes.

  • Trip times scribbled on cardboard

    Notes on the switchboard cover get lost, and nobody trusts a photo of a scrap of paper months later.

  • No proof for the safety officer

    Workplaces need a clear record of which RCDs were tested, when, and what failed.

  • Retest dates untracked

    Push-button intervals are shorter than trip time intervals. Missed retests show up at the next audit.

From first RCD to signed record

Three steps that keep the record with the job.

Start a fresh one from the library or pick up a draft where you left off.
